“This blend was developed during the early Qing Dynasty as a tribute tea by a Yunnan governor wishing to regain lost favor with the Emperor. Even now there is a hundred year old golden melon in the Forbidden City on display. It is considered a work of art. It is made by only using first grade mao cha and it weighs 3300 grams.” – Seven Cups
